Regis Self Defense Series

This eight-week workshop is free to all Regis students, staff, and faculty. Taught by Professional Female MMA Fighter, Kat Paprocki (featured on ESPN+’s The Ultimate Fighter television series), this project helps students gain confidence, build strength, and feel safe when they’re away from home. For faculty and staff, this series can reignite your self-esteem and endow you with invaluable know-how to pass on to your loved ones. For those who attend multiple sessions, each week builds upon the teachings of the last, developing in its participants a tool kit of physical self-defense tactics against larger bodied opponents. Meanwhile, attendance of just one session builds a foundational understanding of situational awareness and offers several tools for protecting yourself in a real-time, unexpected, physical attack.
